Thanks, King.


I appreciate your advice. The problem is not one of how to lay it out, 

however. The problem is whether Flash can render so much stuff moving at 

once. I don't think it can, but am hoping someone will prove me wrong so I 

can meet the client's request without wasting a lot of time with 

experiments that fail.
